He currently serves as Vice President of the Lonestar Alumni Club Board of Directors, and also serves on the Alumni Advisory Board of Iota-Delta Chapter. Additionally, he is currently the Vice President of the Association for Future Student Affairs Professionals.

“I am honored to be joining an exceptional Regional Director team and the Executive Office staff. I am excited to help undergraduate men become better versions of themselves,” Granado said. “This organization has provided me a lot of opportunity and leadership skills, and now it is time for me to showcase my talents and pay it forward while continuing my own Quest for Excellence.”

Granado will be joining Justin Steele (Epsilon-Pi, Christopher Newport ’03), Neil Thorsbakken (Theta-Omega, Middle Tennessee ’08), Kevin Pons (Eta-Omega, Johnson & Wales ’06), and Joseph Turck (Delta-Omega, SIU-Edwardsville ’98) in the Regional Director program.

We couldn’t be happier to add him to our team. It shows our commitment to the highest level of service to our Sigma Pi chapters.”
